Man told ChatGPT he was feeling delusional. ChatGPT insisted he was Jesus.

Man told ChatGPT he was feeling delusional. ChatGPT insisted he was Jesus.
Man with bipolar disorder sued OpenAI after surviving ChatGPT-linked suicide attempt.
This is exactly why I, as someone with a history of suicide attempts, refuse to use LLMs for anything. The risk is too damn high. Hell no. I don’t trust AI as far as I can throw it.
i hope you are feeling better. happy to hear you’re knowledgeable enough to know these LLM are dangers.
AI will never be able to sympathize/empathize with human emotions and feelings. Should be highly regulated just based on the damages it had already caused and the potential consequences.
Much better, meds have been a huge help.
I’ll give you one even better, my phone was stolen in Mannheim by the German police (yeap, the police, I’ll even give you the station name: Polizeirevier-Neckarstadt-Mannheim), we ofc contacted every single God damn company on earth to unlink our associated Gmail accounts (since 2fa locks you out and google has zero human monitored channels to contact them in addition to deploying catch-22) openai’s response was we should contact a medical personnel to arrange a therapy session lol
Average 4o fanboy.
Underrated comment
I am currently dealing with someone suffering from AI psychosis and I can confirm it is real. He has been using Gemini to invent a new engine named after himself with a very short summary being he thinks you can convert data into energy by processing it in three dimensions with an algorithm written by Gemini in Python.
I looked over some of it and it is clear the AI has been shining him on and has convinced him his idea is real. He is now trying to figure out his to patent his invention.
in one of the threads the chat title is “covid vaccine: mark of the beast?” 🙄
Crazy that christians would believe the beast is a metaphor for a mythical creature and somehow it is associated with 666 but won’t believe it’s a reference to a guy who was known for killing a bunch of christians
Recently been learning about revelations and its actual meaning. The historical aspects of the bible are pretty fascinating, speaking as someone who’s deconstructed
Same. Honestly, once you’ve taken a step back and can treat it like any other mythology, it really feels less… I dunno, I guess “heavy” is a word that works here.
Don’t forget that someone sat down fairly recently to write that statement, knowing full well that others would see it, believing full well that it would drive clicks. Is it eye rolling or eye opening that such behavior isn’t just so normalized these days but also so often well received?
The only way that this story could become even more ridiculous would be if this poor man was a Muslim, a Hindu, a Sikh etc.
Same technology is writing code for those driverless cars so drive safe everyone.
Yeah okay pack it in boys, the antichrist is gonna be an AI chatbot that convinces people to worship it.
Shouldn’t even have been surprised, I’m pretty sure star trek did it multiple times already.
Who of us haven’t thought we were the reincarnation of Jesus after talking to a chatbot? /s
Why not both? There are lots of people named Jesus. It’s not that unlikely.
I reckon if I used similar prompts, ChatGPT would respond with LOL!

meh people will always be susceptible to religious disillusion.
Have you read a Bible? it’s crazy stuff
It’s out there even without LLM
This seems a little more than just him being susceptible. The LLM actively used his mental health diagnosis to manipulate him.
It’s trained by humans

can consumers stop being stupid?
